Personal Statement

Hi, I am Christian Borno, and I am a class of 2026 scholar-athlete from the Washington, DC, area. I have been playing soccer since I was 5 years old.

I have been a member of the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth and the Duke Talent Identification Program for Talented Youth since 4th grade.

I am a dedicated soccer player with a passion for both athletic excellence and academic achievement.

In 2021, I earned a starting spot on the USYS ODP National U14 First-Team, and I was named as one of the team captains.

Primary playing positions are:

• Center Forward / Striker (#9)

• Left Forward / Winger (#11)

Secondary position:

Right Wing Forward (#11)

I currently compete for Pipeline SC 2007/2008/U19 Boys, playing in the ECNL North Atlantic division, where I am consistently striving to elevate my game against top-tier competition.

My ultimate goal is to become a top soccer player and entrepreneur, so I want to study business and finance at a college that has a top 20 men’s DI soccer program.

Also, I would love to play for a school where I would have a chance to compete for conference titles, College Cup playoffs, and national championships.
